BBC3 has brought us two great cult Sci-Fi shows, Torchwood and Being Human but could The Fades be the channels next big hit?
The supernatural drama will begin airing a six part series later this month and it focuses on 17-year-old Paul (Iain De
Caestecker) who becomes embroiled in a battle between the living and the
dead. Creator Jack Thorne explains "The Fades are dead people, spirits that are trapped here in our world.
There is no reason why fades are chosen. Death is random and the Fades
are those that are left behind. They are angry, truly angry about the
randomness and the pain and suffering. They are rotting, they can’t be
touched, they’re prisoners on Earth and the series is about the Fades
trying to break through back into the world of the living."
In the first episode a embittered and vengeful Fade has found a way to break the
barrier between the dead and the living with Paul and his best mate Mac's (Daniel Kaluuya) friends
and family all right in the eye of the storm. But the most
terrifying twist is yet to come – the fate of humanity rests in the
hands of the two friends who already have enough trouble getting through
a day in one piece, let alone saving the world.
